China will ban retractable car handles beginning Jan. 1, 2027

Under the proposed rules, vehicles weighing less than 3.5 tons must be equipped with interior and exterior car door handles that include a mechanical emergency opening function. The requirement is intended to ensure doors can be opened during power failures or after collisions.

It's weird seeing a government regulate something for the betterment of society and its citizens. I didn't know that happened anymore.
